Tourist Police

[FireMedic]

Can anyone provide a working email for the Pattaya Tourist Police. Pattaya1155 email is going unanswered.

[LucidLucifer]

I'd expect any email you send will go unanswered. Phone calls won't yield much better results.

Go in and speak to them face to face if you can, you'll have far greater success.

Well thats unfortunate....since I'm back in the US already. I guess I'll keep looking and waiting

Odd that the tourist police website is entirely in Thai though?

[FireMedic]

yes, i did see that website, with the King on it.....again, that avenue has been tried. I guess if someone here is one or knows one, that would be the best help for me. Thanks again

Are you saying that the website has been created for the police officers?

I would have guessed it's for the tourists (who, by definition, are not Thai).

[FireMedic]

Thanks everyone! I went the FB route and see what happens.

1155 rings an unmanned call center in BKK according the folks at the Pattaya Tourist Police station.

[FireMedic]

Tourists are not Thai?

no.. Thais would be nationals... not foreign nationals. Also, Thais would use the Royal Thai police.. why would they need to use the tourist police which was setup to assist the foreign tourists

I guess the magic word here is TOURIST.

My experience is also that the tourist police in Pattaya speak very little English.

I ended up getting in touch with one of the team leaders there. I'll probly head over in september. Now I just need a place to stay!!!!

Pattaya will be a better place with you patrolling the streets thats for sure!

[ricklev]

The primary function of the tourist police is to police tourists, not to assist them. That's why they were set up. No?

No.

[ricklev]

I'm talking about the Thai Tourist Police. Pretty sure there main function is not even supposed to be assistance.

[saengsureeya]

Anyway, Pattaya's Tourist Police phone number is: 038-429371.

No,

They helped with a jet ski scam where damage did occur as a result of a third party capsizing my Jet Ski. They reduced the repair bill from 80,000 Baht to 16,000 Baht. I have the greatest respect for them. .....and yes they did speak English.

There are no Foreign Tourist Police Assistants at Police Stations in Pattaya.

Some posts were removed. For violation of forum rules:

3) Not to post in a manner that is vulgar, obscene or profane.

19) Not to post other members' personal details, photos or web site details. Doing so will result in an instant ban.

I caught the second one early so will only issue a warning here, but if it's repeated we will take much stronger action.

So the English guy at Soi 9 who assisted me when a Thai family member was killed in a hit and run was my imagination?

[petercool]

simple1, I was responding to a misunderstanding that Foreign Tourist Police Assistants (FTPA) are the same as Foreign Police Volunteers (FPV). They are a totally separate group with separate responsibilities and members. FTPA patrol Walking street and FPV man help desks at stations.

[petercool]

Dongtanpatters, OK understood. Thanks. That's why I wanted to explain the two groups. Cheers

[gladiolous]

it doesn't make sense for 1155 , this number no one answer !

Why have a sign for urgent call 1155 if you are not able to reach the officials .
